I got a DEC Alpha 164LX MB 533MHz with SRM console (OpenVMS capable). I would like to run this box on OpenVMS, just for fun, to see what OpenVMS can do.

Obviously internal IDE port is not supported by OpenVMS, so install requires SCSI CD-ROM drive and SCSI harddisks. Both is available (from an very old SUN Sparc). Are there more traps and pitfalls I should consider ? Is it true that old Adaptec AHA2940U will run with OpenVMS ?

peteherreraFebruary 24 2018How much does it cost to buy a complete OpenVMS hardcopy documentation set of the latest version

malmbergDecember 12 2017HPE only makes the most current version of OpenVMS Alpha / IA64 /VAX available to hobbyists. When I had access to the Alliance 1 program it was the same. No public downloads are allowed by HPE.
